| Description | Ink painting of flowers on silk. "Poem to Spring". The poem reads: Accompanying the eastern wind (with) special Karma. The red-silk skirt highly curved up, as if unable to stand the Spring. If it is verbal, it is the beauty dynamic enough to overthrow a dynasty. Even devoid of feeling, it is heart-rendingly beautiful. |
| Credit Line | Gift of Robert C. Belleville, 1964 |
